1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

In this study, cyclodextrin (CDs) derivatives were used to form mefenamic acid (MFA) supramolecular inclusion complexes (ICs) via a polymer-free electrospinning technique, aiming to improve drug delivery and therapeutic applications. MFA, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), has low water solubility, but its solubility increases when complexed with CDs. Three β-CDs derivatives such as hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrins (HCN), methyl β-cyclodextrins (MCN), and sulfobutylether β-cyclodextrins (SCN) were used for MFA ICs. Phase solubility studies showed increased MFA solubility with rising amounts of CDs, with stability constants of 337.1, 684.2, and 931.5 M
